Illustration Friday: Popularity

Unfulfilled

Little Nikita kept a board of wishes. Every time she blew a wish on a dandelion, she would write down what she wished for and pin it to her board. She vowed to only take it down when the wish came true.

Hehehhe! I hope her wishes come true soon because the dandelion stalks will wither soon and may eventually fall off my themselves, I think. Hmn. I have a similar board except mine are not wishes but goals. The board fell because it got so heavy! Hahaha! Okay, just kidding. I love your drawing. I love your style. In fact I am not the only one who loves your style. I wish I can draw like you. I wish I have your FPOT. I wish I love like you. There, three dandelions. I have not seen any here in Manila or Quezon though. Have a great day. It is now 4:39AM here! Tsup!

Beautiful! I love the huge frame and the huge number of wishes bending this way and that. (Except the part where none have come true. I hope some have at least an outside chance of coming true eventually!) Always such neat and clever illustrations at your place!

So many wishes! Why are they pinned down? They should be floating away in a summer breeze!Maybe these are very special ones that need to be held on to? I don't understand. But perhaps I am not supposed to understand. Just adore your wonderful world?! I wish I could join you in your creative mind. I'm sure it would be so much fun! HUGS

~ah i do hope really hope that if she is wishing for popularity hopeful she will come to realize it will never make her happy...it kind of sucks being popular...having relationships with false pretenses...not real friendships...may her wishes be fulfilled with only oodness at heart...so so beautiful my friend...much love light and blessings~

OH, Bella, Nikita is so sweet..and this is so beautifully illustrated! As she is so dedicated, I know her wish will come true..and she is already popular with me! : ) Hope you had a lovely celebration with your kiddies and the box o' holey chocolates..sorry about that..my love of chocolate is quite difficult to control. : ) Love those little tags...ah the detail, Bella..you always amaze me!

I love how her little feet are crossed over one another. And her wish or wishes must be so important to keep track of. I do not know how you come up with these wonderful and unique ideas, because you are creative in such a charming way!

O so sweet! I really pray that all her wishes come true!!!! She will not have to be sad then or feel there's something left to be unfulfilled... I love dandellions too. I have been thinking of painting one...should attempt it soon:)

Such a sweet illustration and beautiful, but then I would expect nothing less coming here!! Little Nikita looks just a little sad to me though - so many wishes. But she hopefully has a long life ahead of her where all of her wishes can come true... Hope you are doing wonderfully!! Hugs, Silke

Bella, at first I thought she was a little sad, but then I realized she was just winded. I mean, look at all the dandelion stems! This girl has been busy! Perhaps she could employ a small electric fan to help with wish production. You are so amazingly original! Happy weekend - xox

He he he he he he he! Gee is that why the pollen count is so high??? She must have cause all the sneezing in my house he he he he he he! I miss you so much. I had to come by and say hello and I love you. It's been way to long. I am really thinking about not blogging anymore, but now I have hope. I love this. It's like it had my name on it or something. Okay, back to the tar pits of work.Tsup babygirl

: ) Thanks for your oh so fabulous visit this morning, Bella! I mean it..you are so cool. I'm so glad you liked baby bear..you are very very kind. Hope you're enjoying today with your kiddos..we just went shoe and jeans shopping (gosh they're growing too fast) and now it's time for chocolate. : ) Have a great rest of the week!

Hello! I just wanted to remember my first of two 7-hour layovers. It is a foggy morning at Incheon. I am eating sweet squid strips with my cup of mocha. What a combination. Hahahahh! Oh and one more thing, the men's rest room at Incheon is very clean. You know why I know. Hehehehe!

You know, Korean women are very attractive and charming.

What's up with the phrase verification? I could not see them at all in Manila, just an error icon.
